Join us for previews of Mary Corse’s first solo museum survey, Mary Corse: A Survey in Light. Initially trained as an abstract painter, Corse (b. 1945) emerged in the mid-1960s as one of the few women associated with the West Coast Light and Space movement. The survey will bring together the artist’s key bodies of work—including her early shaped canvases, freestanding sculptures, and light encasements that she engineered in the mid-1960s, as well as her breakthrough White Light paintings, begun in 1968, and the Black Earth series that she initiated after moving in 1970 from downtown Los Angeles to Topanga Canyon, where she lives and works today.

Wednesday and Thursday, June 6–7
12–6 pm
